How can anyone even approach this with a straight face? You don't even know what they are computing! If you want to question clojure's performance for technica

How can anyone even approach this with a straight face? You don't even know what they are computing!
If you want to question clojure's performance for technical reasons, do that. But let's not use feelings, and instincts in discussions about concrete scientific topics. There have certainly been several interesting articles on clojure performance, and work done to improve performance for native data structures (transients). I, and no doubt many others, would be genuinely interested in performance studies on more complex concurrency problems I've seen so far.
- lucifer 17y agoThen this discussion between Cliff Click and Rich Hickey may be of interest: http://blogs.azulsystems.com/cliff/2008/05/clojure-stms-vs.html http://blogs.azulsystems.com/cliff/2008/05/clojure-stms-vs.h... Its a bit dated ('08), but sounds like the jury is still out on STMs.
- jbert 17y agoThat's a great read, thanks very much. It might be worth submitting the link itself to get a wider audience.
